The Constitutional Court of Turkey is the highest judicial authority responsible for ensuring the constitutionality of laws and regulations in Turkey. Established in 1962, it plays a crucial role in protecting the fundamental rights and freedoms outlined in the Turkish Constitution. The court reviews laws, decrees, and political party activities to ensure they align with constitutional principles. It also has the authority to annul laws that violate the constitution and can rule on individual applications regarding rights violations, making it a key institution in maintaining the rule of law in Turkey.
